“‘Huffing‘ is a term commonly used among adolescent age groups, referring to the use of inhaling solvents with the intention of getting high. The technique used for huffing includes soaking a rag with inhalant that can be found in most common household items. Next steps include either putting the rag up to the face or putting the rag in the mouth.0

“Usually the effects felt from huffing can last anywhere from a few seconds to a few minutes depending on which substance was inhaled and its quantity...”

No thank you.

I’ll tell this story...near where I grew up (rural Alabama), there were these there male teenagers (age of 15)....into huffing (this was almost twenty years ago).

The three got their bags and liquid...going down some trail about a mile from any civilization, and started huffing. Night came...relatives got worried and asked neighbors to hunt for them. Territory is all infested with snakes...no one volunteered for a evening search.

Daylight came. Only two or three were willing to volunteer. That whole day passed. No sign of the three (still huffing and passing out). Another evening arrives.

Around day three, someone finally locates the three. They aren’t in any condition to walk in their own. Rescue group spends about half the day dragging the three back to some county road.

No one ever discusses the episode after that. I don’t think any of the three graduated from high school, and I’d suspect all three today are meth or oxy-pill people.
